This is the first time I have known of how this nightmare touched you. A moving response to a difficult time. To read of your visceral experience is revealing. Revealing your turmoil, and your heart.

I was lucky to be living in a semi rural location, 30 minutes south of Santa Fe. It was only bi-monthly trips to the grocery store that felt threatening.

It all feels like ancient history. Still I am aware daily, the beast could return at any moment.

We live in a very different world, than the one we grew up in. Than the world that included endless hours in a darkroom, instead of a dark world.

This is another moving story from you, Rodrigo.
